Chapter 807:
Gianna and Conroy fell silent, unable to respond.
They looked ashamed. Observing their expressions, Eileen continued, âIf Iâm not wrong, Jessica is the child of you two, correct?â
Gianna and Conroy remained silent.
Eileen said, âLet me guess further. Did you arrange for Kinsey to marry Dolores to demonstrate your loyalty to my grandmother and to show that you didnât use Kinsey to seize power, right? The company isnât on the brink of bankruptcy, nor is it losing twenty million a month. Youâre just afraid Iâll covet the Vazquez Groupâs assets, arenât you?â
Eileen felt a surge of satisfaction as the secrets came to light one by one.
Giannaâs and Conroyâs pale faces made her feel amused.
âIâll offer you two options. You can leave the Vazquez family and live on your own. I can provide you with a sum of money. Or⦠continue like this. Youâll have to make sure I never find any evidence of your affair,â Eileen said, confident she would win now.
She knew Jessica was tangible proof that Conroy had cheated. A paternity test involving Jessica, Conroy, and Gianna would clarify everything.
However, she was unsure how to break the news to Leyla. Jessicaâs existence confirmed that Gianna and Conroy had been together for over twenty years.
Gianna had engaged in an affair with her sisterâs husband. Eileen wondered whether Leyla could accept this.
Gianna had also thought of this and felt fearless. âWho do you think you are, Eileen? The Vazquez family isnât yours to command. Behave, and weâll provide you with plenty of money. Donât ask for more!â
LÉtÑÑÏ chÉÏÏÑrs ιn gðªlðovÑðð.ððð âBut according to the Vazquez familyâs rules, I own the Group. Why would I just take some money? You think I should be content to simply be wealthy and abandon my claim to the entire Vazquez family? Thatâs absurd.â Clearly, Eileen disagreed.
Conroy, overcome with anger, abruptly stood up. âYour grandmotherâs health is deteriorating. It would hurt her if we make a big deal of this. If you care about her well-being, you shouldnât stir up more trouble!â
âYou donât want anything bad to happen to Grandma, do you?â Eileenâs pointed comment revealed the reasons behind their deep concern for Leyla. Leyla clearly had something important to her.
Conroy was struck, unable to find the right words. Gianna spoke in a low voice.
âSo whatâs your angle here? Are you just after money? Youâve been away for so long, and you think you can just waltz in and control VQ Group? Even if we handed it to you, you wouldnât know what to do with it. Hereâs what I propose: why donât you get your father to guide you, and once youâve got the hang of things, weâll hand the company to you. What do you think?â
Conroy looked like he was about to object, but Giannaâs gaze silenced him before he could utter a word.
What was she scheming?
Since it would take a few days for Eileen to dig up dirt on their affair, she decided to wait and see what they wanted to do for now.
âAlright then, itâs settled. You can go back to sleep. Iâll return to my place now,â Eileen said.
